Our Cultural Values

The Core 8

Integrity

Do the right thing, even when no one is watching. Our team acts with integrity, accountability, and honesty above all else. Building trust builds a better company.

Connect

We communicate openly, honestly, transparently, and with integrity in every connection with both our customers as well as our fellow team members.

Own It

We hold ourselves accountable for our actions and outcomes, both good and bad. We don’t pass the blame.

Have Fun

It’s good to surround ourselves with happy, positive, joyful, and motivated people. We laugh, have fun, collaborate, and celebrate the wins. It’s good for both our team and our company.

One Team

We recognize that we are stronger together. We show up for each other, learn from each other, act with empathy, thrive in a diverse and inclusive environment, and treat each other with respect and kindness not for our own personal gain, but for each other.

Evolve & Adapt

Continuous improvement is an expectation of us by our customers, and we share that expectation of ourselves. It’s a responsibility we embrace daily and never stop pursuing. By acting with the courage to challenge the status quo, we seek to understand and evolve with curiosity and determination.

Customer Experience

Our customers are the lifeblood of our business and they entrust their most precious assets to us. We empower our employees to provide solutions and services that meet or exceed our customers’ expectations every time.

Hire to Aspire

We hire people based on who they are and their talents, not just to fill a job. Our employees are the heart and soul of our business and we invest in development, reward excellence in performance, and help you get to where you want to go in your career.

Guardian Alarm has been our alarm service provider for roughly 19 years. We wanted to add video to our system. We reached out to them and were able to set up an appointment with Matt (Residential Security Consultant) immediately. We discussed what we were trying to accomplish with Matt and he helped us craft a plan to upgrade and add video to our system and scheduled the install for the following week. TJ arrived at the scheduled time and did the install in a matter of hours. He was very knowledgeable and worked with us to set up the system and phone application just the way we wanted it. The experience of working with Guardian to upgrade and update our system makes us very confident we are working with the right security system provider. We would highly recommend them to others for residential security services.
Far far better than trying to work with adt. These guys are good

so professional and helpful. happy with the service
I recently had a Guardian Alarm system installed in my home. Lauren Mickens was the rep that got me started on the phone by explaining what would be the best for my home. Two days later, TJ, the Alarm Technician, came to install the system. He had a great sense of humor and explained how everything worked in great detail. Installation took less than 2 hours. The greatest benefit that I find that is so helpful to me is having the app on my phone so that I can arm/disarm the system from wherever I am.
Tim went above and beyond explaining how to use the system and answered any questions we might have had. Best technician
Guardian tech came out within the said time and installed a Form C relay to our fire panel so we could have a new access reader installed on our entry doors. finished in 45 Mins.

Scott and Paul are the absolute best! They are the type of people you want representing your company. Scott was my sales rep and he was more like a really good friend and not just some sales guy. He took the time to go over all of the options that were a available to me and also breaking it all down. Paul came to my home to install the system and he was like a brother or good friend of the family which was awesome! He too went that extra mile to make sure I was covered and understood every. They both left a lasting impression on me that led me to say that I’m a life long customer now and I am. Thanks guys for making the experience one to remember.
Everything went smooth and it’s really easy to use. No surprises just great security.
Guardian customer service called me back twice to get my matter resolved instead of me having to keep calling back.
Working with this company is awesome. We have had this alarm system many years and recently upgraded to the newest camera systems. We have worked through all the technical issues of network extenders etc. They have exceeded my expectations always on time and very helpful. Took the time to explain all the features of the system. A great shout out to A.J, Arman and Jose. Few days later we were refining our system and Imani was soooooo good. She helped us understand and never left us until all was settled we appreciate her patience and knowledge of the system. Highly recommend guardian alarm.
We recently had some upgrades done to our Guardian Alarm system. Justin, the installer, was very professional, knowledgeable, patient, and efficient. After the installation, he took time to carefully explain how all the new equipment, cameras, and new control panel worked. If you are looking for a security system, we recommend Guardian Alarm with Justin as the installer.
